Friendly goblins??
« on: December 31, 2008, 10:06:15 pm »

So i've been trying to start off a game near a goblin tower, only to find, time and time again, that all the inhabitants are friendly- goblins and human prisoners alike. Every one is listed as 'Friendly' in the units screen.

Am I missing something here? I picked this spot to kick some goblin ass!

Goblin towers are bugged in the latest version, and that always happens.

Oh, thanks!

I don't suppose it's something simple that I could change with a text editor?

 In theory one could modify the goblin entity so they can never have diplomacy with anybody else, but that would be beyond what I know.

 You know how the mess with the RAWs?

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

In my fortress, the first dwarven caravan came with a goblin liaison. I checked the dwarven civ and it said that there were a few goblins in high power (luckily not the king).
